Photos from Game 1 of the World Series between the Dodgers and the Tampa Bay Rays at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas., and though Justin Turner struck out, Muncy hit a grounder to first with Betts scoring because of his great secondary lead and jump off third. Will Smith, Chris Taylor and Enrique Hernandez followed with RBI singles.
“We just took good at-bats all night long, really,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. “Corey Seager had three walks tonight, and when you’re talking about getting the pitch count up with Glasnow, I thought those were great at-bats and were very pivotal. Just up and down the lineup, really good stuff.”
Walks have prefaced some of the bigger hits of the playoffs for the Dodgers. Taylor and Smith walked during a four-run sixth inning in a 5-1 National League Division Series Game 1 win over San Diego. Betts and Bellinger walked during a game-breaking five-run third in a 12-3 series-clinching win over the Padres.
Muncy walked again in the first inning of Game 6 against the Braves to extend a three-run rally that Bellinger capped with an RBI single. Those were the only runs the Dodgers scored in a 3-1 victory. Turner sparked a two-out, two-run rally in NLCS Game 7 with a walk. Muncy doubled and Smith hit a score-tying two-run single to propel the Dodgers toward a 4-3 win that punched their ticket to the World Series.
